The revolution is here. Weight Loss as we understand it has changed forever as a consequence of one diet.
One diet that has reached beyond the weight loss program boundaries and invaded areas heretofore unknown: areas like beer commercials and even the all sacred fast food menus.
There was even a recent report on how this diet has taken a vast revenue chunk out of the bread and flour industries. Now that’s power.
You are aware of which diet I’m talking about of course.
The large LC – LOW CARB
( a.k.a. lo carb, Atkins, protein diet, Adkins,no carb, etc)
The low-carb diet isn’t new. As a matter of fact it’s been around for years ( well before Atkins wrote about it). And yet it just keeps pressing on, affecting our food choices and popular culture.
So what is it about the low-carb diet that makes it so popular? Here are 3 reasons:
#1 You can eat as much as you want (of certain low-carb foods)
While the sort of food is completely restricted to when we low-carb or no carb, you don’t have enough restrict how much food you eat ( in theory).
This fact makes the low-carb diet favorite with those of us who have been starved and deprived by reduced fat diets for years.
It’s a sort of ‘have your cake and eat it too mentality’ ( providing the cake is low-carb!) Critically the low-carb diets says ‘Eat all you want and STILL lose weight’
Hey, sign me up.
#2 You can eat ‘bad’ food.
Human nature being what it is, we love to break the rules, step over the line, tempt fate, and do something ‘bad’.
We’ve been told for years that low-carb foods – foods like eggs bacon, cheese, cream cheese, butter etc, are bad for us. With low-carb diets we can slim down while breaking all the reduced fat rules we’ve come to resent.
#3 People feel uncontrolled with carbs
You’ve seen the plethora of new books and articles surfacing regarding carbohydrate addictions or hunger pangs. Lots of people have obtained into the mentality that they are ‘addicted’ to carbs ( comparable way we get addicted to cigarettes or caffeine).
They feel that when they eat carbs, their hunger pangs get uncontrolled and instead of having one brownie as an example, they cannot stop the hunger pangs and they eat the whole tray. So for a few, low-carb foods get to be the safe territory where they can eat and not feel uncontrolled.
Those are several factors why low-carb diets are so popular but do they work?
That hinges on which study you read. There have been mixed incidents, some say they work, some say they present you with the identical results as a reduced fat diet.
But to break it owing to someone level, here’s my take:
For the low-carb diet to be prosperous, you can get approach it as a life change (and that’s a big life change).
You need to be dedicated in getting over the changeover period (often called carb withdrawal) which can feel pretty lousy.
You have to dedicate yourself to finding new low-carb ways of eating, new low-carb recipes and products. It can be done – but you’d beat be prepared to put the job in.
Yet for those just searching for a chance to eat all the ‘bad’ food they want and still lose tons of weight in 2 weeks – save yourself the pain sensation, the carb withdrawal and the keto-strips and just cut down your portion sizes.
